Summary Le ph nom ne formulaire est foisonnant, prot iforme et omnipr sent dans tous les aspects des pratiques culturelles m di vales. Po sie, actes piscopaux, encyclop dies, r cits de miracles, charmes, formulaires notariaux, chroniques : tous ces genres textuels emploient des formules des degr s divers et sous des formes vari es. Au-del de cette diversit apparente se dessinent cependant des probl matiques communes: d sir de permanence, argumentation fond e sur un savoir partag unissant une communaut d'utilisateurs (et excluant aisi ceux qui n'appartiendraient pas ladite communaut ), souplesse et adaptabilit bien r elles derri re la fixit apparente de la forme. Ce quatri me ouvrage consacr la formule m di vale rassemble des contributions en fran ais, en anglais et en espagnol. travers l' tude fine d'une multitude de documents de natures et d'origines g ographiques tr s vari es, ces articles analysent les formules la fois dans leur fonctionnement textuel (et parfois graphique) et dans leur r le social. La confrontation de disciplines diff rentes permet d'aborder le ph nom ne formulaire dans sa globalit , et ainsi de mieux distinguer ce qui n'est propre qu' un type de formules ou de texte particulier et ce qui est au contraire essentiel au concept de formule.

Weather, water, and climate. How we feel, how productive we are, even our sheer existence, depends on these three things. The United States economic activity varies annually by 1.7% due to weather-that is more than $500 billion dollars each year! Weather applications on mobile devices are the second most popular 'apps' - more popular than social networking, maps, music,and news. In Treading on Thin Air, Dr. Elizabeth Austin, a world-renowned atmospheric physicist, reveals how the climate is intimately tied to our daily lives. The effects and impacts of weather on humans, society and the planet are changing with the times. Dr. Austin will demystify climate change, revealing what is really happening with our climate and why, whether it is El Nino, tornadoes, floods or hurricanes. Weather and society are at its most fascinating at extremes, and as Dr. Austin is one of a handful of forensic meteorologists around the globe. She has been called upon to investigate plane crashes, murders, wildfires, avalanches, even bombing cases. Drawing upon her rich experiences, Austin's Treading on Thin Air promises to be an enlightening and informative journey through the wild word of weather.

Summary Saint Patrick is a central figure in the medieval Irish Church. As the converter saint he was a central anchor through which Irish people came to understand their complicated religious past as well as their new place in the wider Christian world. This study considers some of the earliest and most influential writings focused on Saint Patrick, and asks how successive generations forged, sustained and redirected aspects of the saint's persona in order to suit their specific religious and political needs. In this book Elizabeth Dawson, for the first time, treats the Hiberno-Latin vitae of Patrick as a body of connected texts. Seminal questions about the corpus are addressed, such as who wrote the Lives and why? What do the works tell us about the communities that venerated and celebrated the saint? And what impact did these Lives have on the success and endurance of the saint's cult? Challenging the perception that Patrick's legend was created and sustained almost exclusively by the monastic community at Armagh, she demonstrates that the Patrick who emerges from the Lives is a varied and malleable saint with whom multiple communities engaged.

Morning Change is a book on movement, location and nomadism in the oeuvre of the Brussels based German artist Heide Hinrichs (b. 1976). It is an invitation to follow different lines that are directed east ? east of Kassel, east of Busan, east of Seattle, east of London. The lines are drawn over continents and oceans, against the Earth?s own movement we unconsciously witness with each sunrise. Within the traces of these lines, static objects are put back into motion and they are made to leave their recommended positions of meaning. The publication brings together three groups of works, developed over different periods of time between 1999 and 2018, exploring the artist?s recurring interest in these topics. the horse ? a story that starts 10 year after the fall of the Iron Curtain, Silent Sisters?/?Stille Schwestern together with a series of drawings and installations that were conceived in response to DICTEE ? a text written by the Korean-American artist Theresa Hak Kyung Cha and On Some of the Birds of Nepal (Parting the Animal Kingdom of the East) ? an installation that Hinrichs created in the context of the first Kathmandu Triennale 2017.

One remarkable feature of European culture as it developed in the Renaissance was the accommodation it made with ancient paganism. The classical gods and their legends were allegorised, transformed into symbolic figures or emblematic scenes that might accord with Christian morality. At the same time a secular space was created in art for the depiction of the most popular myths, above all the love stories recounted by the ancient poets. These stories were not only attractive in themselves; they offered the opportunity to depict nude figures in narrative action, which the example of antiquity held forth as the highest goal for painting. Rubens was one of the greatest creators of classical allegory; he was also a supreme interpreter of the classical stories. No painter was so at home in the literature of the Greeks and Romans. When he painted for pleasure, which, increasingly in the course of his life, he felt able to do, he used pagan myth to express and celebrate themes of love, beauty and the creative forces of nature, often in wonderfully idiosyncratic ways. At the same time, as a Christian committed to the ideals of the Catholic Reformation, Rubens respected the restrictions generally placed on the depiction of pagan tales. Most of his mythological paintings were made for private settings, for display within houses (including his own) or in the galleries of princes, noblemen and prelates. It is happy accident of history that these splendid paintings are now widely visible in the great museums of the world.

Over the course of his life, Arnout Balis (d. 2021) did a lot of thinking about and around Rubens. A principal beneficiary of this was the Corpus Rubenianum, that multi-volume catalogue of the work of the artist to which he devoted so much of his scholarly endeavour ? as author, and, still more, as the most generous of editors. But he also produced wide-ranging, as well as more closely detailed, studies on the artist that were written for a variety of contexts. Arnout Balis was an artist before he was an art historian, and the question of how Rubens channelled his ideas into visual form constantly attracted and intrigued him. He was fascinated, too, by the practicalities of the artist?s method of production, given the enormous output of Rubens?s studio. Not only did he rigorously assemble and analyse every scrap of information about pupils or associates of the master, but he made himself an expert in the work of each of Rubens?s artistic contemporaries. In all his investigations, whether involving the attribution of a painting, an iconographic puzzle or the solution to a historical problem, he took nothing for granted, treating any received idea or initial intuition with due scepticism until it could be shown to stand the test of the evidence, documentary and visual. The present volume shows the Balis method in action. It includes several studies already acclaimed as exemplary, and others which deserve to be more widely known. Five of them are made available here for the first time in English translation.

Summary Pontormo's frescoes in San Lorenzo were the most important cycle of the sixteenth century after Michelangelo's Sistine frescoes.? They had an enormous impact on artists until their destruction in the eighteenth century, and their interpretation has also had a significant bearing not only on the reception of this artist, but also of late Renaissance art in Florence. Based on archival and historical research, this book determines a new date for the inception of the fresco cycle and reconstructs the day-by-day activity in the church that had an impact on Pontormo's project. ?It reveals Pontormo's painstaking working method. The new reconstruction corrects the visual order of the frescoed scenes, and conclusively demonstrates the orthodoxy of the choir's iconography.? It sets them into the artistic and architectural context of the church of San Lorenzo, relating them to works of art by Fra Bartolomeo and Michelangelo, as well as to complex liturgical and religious functions.? This study establishes the intentions of the Medici and the canons of the church in having Pontormo paint the specific space in the church where he painted, and the specific subjects that were included.? Finally, it reveals the unsuspected impact Pontormo's paintings had on other works of art. TABLE OF CONTENTS INTRODUCTION: The introduction explains the history and historiography of both Pontormo in general and this commission in particular. CHAPTER 1: LIFE AND DEATH IN THE CHOIR Can we re-imagine the day-to-day progress of the commission? Beginning with a re-dating of the project, I shall trace the practical realities of daily painting in the choir, the comings and goings of artists and people: the ?world? of the choir will be explored. The frequent trope of Pontormo as an isolated loner and painfully slow artist will be disproved. The close supervision of the major stakeholders for the project, the Duke and the church, will be demonstrated. CHAPTER 2: REVERSALS OF FORTUNE My discovery that Pontormo reversed his preliminary sketches when they were scaled up into full-scale cartoons has demonstrated that several of the extant drawings used to reconstruct the choir must be inverted. Adjusting the reconstruction to take this into account resolves issues of visual, thematic, and iconographic coherence which have perplexed scholars. Essential elements in my new reconstruction reveal new and unexpected functions and meanings for Pontormo's paintings. These functions and iconographical connections place the lost paintings in a new light in relation to the fabric of the church of San Lorenzo. CHAPTER 3: LAWRENCE'S ACTS and CHAPTER 4: CYCLES OF SALVATION In these two sections I explain the significance of the frescoes. The first chapter focuses on the end wall, which was the public view of the choir and on which Pontormo's painting of Saint Lawrence provided a personal message of salvation to viewers. The second of these two chapters explains the entire set of images. This is the first time a seamlessly cohesive and inclusive interpretation of the cycle has been found. The new textual associations supplied in these chapters establishe that far from being of questionable orthodoxy, Pontormo's frescoes were a brilliant encapsulation of the functions of the choir. CHAPTER 5: THEN AND NOW: PONTORMO'S PLACE IN HISTORY Vasari's comments about the San Lorenzo commission in the Life of Pontormo created a negative view. This chapter corrects that, and replaces it with an appreciation of the gigantic task he confronted, the brilliance of his solutions, and the positive reception he and his paintings received.

Lawrence Alma-Tadema (1836-1912). Geboren in Friesland en vanaf 1870 werkzaam in Londen, was ongelooflijk succesvol in het Victoriaanse Engeland en behoorde tot de meest gevierde en best betaalde kunstenaars. Hij specialiseerde zich in het weergeven van antieke zeden en gewoonten. Zijn voorstellingen waren gebaseerd op de nieuwste archeologische ontdekkingen en geschilderd met verbazingwekkende details. Met koel marmer, diepblauwe zeeen, kostbare stoffen en elegante personages, dit alles gestileerd volgens de Victoriaanse smaak, riep hij een poetisch beeld op van de antieke wereld. Naast de bijna obsessieve aandacht voor het detail worden Alma-Tadema's schilderijen gekenmerkt door bijzondere lichteffecten, composities met duizelingwekkende perspectieven en fraaie doorkijkjes. Deze illusionistische trucs, waardoor de toeschouwer als het ware in het beeld getrokken wordt, zouden later worden opgepakt door de filmindustrie van Hollywood.

What is the art of commodities, and how does it contribute to shaping a city? The case of Venice, which perhaps more than any other late medieval or early modern city depended on trade, offers some widely applicable considerations in response to these questions. Commodities exist as such only when they can be bought and sold. Select materials, techniques and tools, motifs, and working processes are entailed in the conception and realization of commodities, with the aim of producing and selling in numbers. The art of commodities is an art of anticipation and organization, as complex as the material, social, and symbolic situations it results from, deals with, and contributes to shaping. In turn, an analysis of commodities allows for profound insights in these situations. The art of commodities ultimately presents specific challenges, solutions, and styles; it is an art of objects, as well as an art of cities and societies. In Venice, commodities did much more than circulate throughout the Lagoon: the city was made of them. The studies in this book consider the Serenissima?s diverse commodities, merchants, and routes from multiple perspectives. Ella Beaucamp is a doctoral candidate at Ludwig-Maximilians-Universit t M nchen, where she developed her dissertation topic within the research group ?Premodern Objects. An Archaeology of Experience?, led by Philippe Cordez. She studies the high medieval stone reliefs of Venetian house facades, relating them to the larger context of Mediterranean trade and artistic production. The Centro Tedesco di Studi Veneziani, the Gerda Henkel Stiftung, and the Max Weber Foundation ? German Humanities Institutes Abroad have supported her work. For her master?s thesis she was the recipient of the Heinrich W lfflin Prize from Ludwig-Maximilians-Universit t M nchen. Philippe Cordez is Deputy Director of the German Center for Art History in Paris. His research and teaching deal with medieval art history and more generally with object studies in art history. This work has been supported by the cole des Hautes tudes en Sciences Sociales in Paris, the Universit t Hamburg, the Kunsthistorisches Institut in Florenz ?

Kunstenares Ellen Marie grijpt terug naar de ambachtelijkheid van oude meesters. Dat leerde ze niet aan de Willem De Kooning Academie waar ze eerst studeerde, maar aan de Barcelona Academy of Art, waar ze traditionele teken- en schildertechnieken kreeg onderwezen. Nu heeft ze een eigen studio in Barcelona en geeft ze er les aan de Academy. Lux Aeterna, 'Eeuwig Licht' is een reeks van 57 schilderijen waarin ze het proces volgt van een dansende man op weg naar zelfverwezenlijking, de hoogste der menselijke behoeften. In het eerste deel treffen we hem aan kronkelend van zielenpijn, getormenteerd doordat een blinddoek hem belet het licht dat hem omringt, waar te nemen. In deel twee valt de blinddoek af en komt er geleidelijk een dans op gang. Er ontstaat een dialoog tussen het licht dat op zijn lichaam valt en het onzichtbare licht, de levenskracht die van binnenuit opwelt, eerst ingetogen daarna steeds woester. In het derde deel spatten de klodders verf van het doek. De vorm valt meer en meer uit elkaar en transmuteert tot een onherkenbare massa waarin nog slechts de suggestie van een figuur zit. In het vierde deel ten slotte, vindt de man na een lange eenzame tocht verwantschap bij gelijkgestemde zielen die baden in het goddelijke licht. Dit verhaal verbeeldt de innerlijke zoektocht van de kunstenares naar Waarheid, Licht en Vrijheid. Kunstrecensent Koen Van Damme (The Art Couch) schreef vijf gedichten bij dit bijzondere werk.

Overview A celebration of an artist whose under-sung legacy testifies to the enduring power of originality, drive, and devotion. Accompanying an exhibition at Philip Mould & Company, Without Hands presents the art of Sarah Biffin. Biffin (1784-1850) was born with phocomelia, a condition described on her baptism record as "born without arms and legs." After learning to sew and write as a child, Biffin joined a traveling sideshow where she painted in front of an audience. Eventually, she rose to fame as a talented miniaturist, signing many of her works "without hands." Despite her prolific output, including commissions from royalty and exquisitely detailed self-portraits, Biffin's work has been overlooked by art historians. Beautifully illustrated and including original research, Without Hands celebrates Biffin as an artist who challenged contemporary attitudes to disability.
